default priority mapping provided by the switch. These commands affect all of the interfaces on
the switch and leave the defaults unchanged for priority levels 3-7.

The switch supports two protocols based on the Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP)
defined in IEEE 802.1D: GARP Multicast Registration Protocol (GMRP) and GARP VLAN
Registration Protocol (GVRP). These protocols are disabled by default.
config garp gmrp adminmode enable
config garp gmrp interfacemode all
config garp gvrp adminmode enable
config garp gvrp interfacemode all
While the Spanning Tree Protocol is needed to maintain the network topology, forwarding of
frames also requires that the switch learn the location of end stations. The switch does this by
recording the port on which packets from a source MAC address are received. The forwarding
database is used to hold this information. You can control how long an address will remain in the
database if no traffic is seen from it (the aging timer).
